2003 Yamaha FJR1300 User Ratings

Yamaha says the FJR "explodes the sport-touring mold" to create what it calls a Super Sport Tourer. The formula is simple: Wrap an aluminum perimeter frame around a torque-laden monster Inline-Four (kind of like the FJR's spiritual predecessor, the FJ1200), transmit power through part of the shaft drive of a V-Max to sportbike-size rubber, add mighty brakes from the R1, and cloak it in a stylish, full-coverage fairing with matching hard bags.
